On Thursday, April 9th, the Atlanta Blockchain Center is set discuss the concept of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAO) and the way they’re governed.
Conversations across the crypto space are heating up around one of the most important (and often overlooked) parts of Web3: governance. Recent debates surrounding Aave have pulled back the curtain on how decisions are really made within decentralized protocols—raising questions around voter participation, delegate influence, and whether token-based governance truly reflects the will of the community.
At this week’s OTC Thursday, we’re unpacking what’s happening, why it matters, and what comes next. From the rise of more structured, “enhanced” DAO models to the broader push for better alignment between builders, users, and token holders, we’ll explore how governance is evolving in real time. If Web3 is about ownership and decentralization, then governance is where those ideals are tested—and refined. Join us as we continue pushing Atlanta forward as a top 10 blockchain city in the next 5 years.
